This 1954 MG TF is a genuine UK car which was sold by us in January last year. Back then it was fresh from a nearly 45-year ownership, and today there are only 5 previous keepers showing on the V5C. It was registered on 5th June 1954 and its odometer shows 58,799 miles.

Since we last sold it, the MG has received over £2000 worth of parts and maintenance, mostly by the MG Owners' Club Workshop. This has included replacing all the oils, and much attention to the brakes. Invoices also suggest that the car received an engine overhaul around 11,000 miles ago. The last MoT expired in February 2013 after being tested the year before at an indicated 57,472 miles. However, as an historic vehicle, the MG no longer requires annual testing. 

The history file contains the current V5C, original 1980 catalogue from Paradise Garage listing the MG for sale, and invoices from the 1980s onwards. It also includes MoTs going back to 1980, MG Octagon Car Club magazines, an owner's handbook and other miscellaneous paperwork.
